General description
The SSL3250A is a photo flash LED driver designed for battery operated mobile devices such as mobile phones and PDAs. The boost converter delivers high performance and drives a single or dual, high brightness LED at up to 500 mA with over 85 % efficiency. The driver can be programmed to operate in Flash, Torch or Indicator / Video-on mode.
